Human Hair Was Created in a Lab, You See Less Color Than You Think, and Mapping an Underground City Without Digging
Learn about how archaeologists used ground-penetrating radar to map an entire Roman city underground without digging; the gross but cutting-edge science of creating human hair in a lab; and why you see way less color than you probably think.
